On Thanksgiving, we remember our model of gratitude, Mary, who never ceased in praising the Lord.

Canticle of Mary

My soul magnifies the Lord,
and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,
for He has looked with favor on the lowliness of His servant.
Surely, from now on all generations will call me blessed;
for the Mighty One has done great things for me,
and holy is God’s name.
God’s mercy is for those who fear Him from generation to generation.
God has shown strength with His arm;
He has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts.
God has brought down the powerful from their thrones,
and lifted up the lowly;
He has filled the hungry with good things,
and sent the rich away empty.
God has helped His servant Israel,
in remembrance of His mercy,
according to our ancestors, to Abraham and to his descendants forever.

Mary is the ultimate model of "saying yes" to God. Today we celebrate the Feast of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary.

The feast of the presentation of Mary dates back to the 6th century in the East and the 15th century in the West. It is based on an ancient tradition that says Mary was taken to the temple in Jerusalem when she was 3-years-old and dedicated to God.

We strive to be open to God's grace and dedicate ourselves to Him, following the example of Our Mother.
